This lists those legislators who have been constrained to be at the ends
of the dimension.
- The first column is equal to 0 if the legislator has been
constrained, and equal to 1 if not constrained.
The next 36 columns (JNE=36 in the FORTRAN code)
are from the roll call matrix itself (see the format statement in the
NOMSTART.DAT file). This is user determined and is set in NOMSTART.DAT. In
this application to U.S. Senate roll call data,
- the column in red is the Congress number
- the column in blue is the ICPSR ID Number as corrected
by Howard Rosenthal and myself
- the column in Magenta is the ICPSR State Code
- the column of zeroes will show the two digit Congressional District Number for
House Roll Call Matrices
- the column in Coral is the first seven letters of the
State Name
- the column in Midnightblue is the party code -- 100 for
Democrats, 200 for Republicans. See the Party Codes Page
for a complete listing
- The column in Firebrick are the ICPSR Occupancy
and Election Codes
- Name of Senator
- The cross classification is in Turquoise.
The second and third
columns are classification errors -- predicted yes voted no and predicted
no voted yes. So for Reed,
correct classification = (294+136-20-6)/(294+136+20+6) = 94.3%.
- The last column is the coordinate on the
current dimension. For 2nd and higher dimensions, these coordinates will not
range from -1 to +1 because the legislators are constrained to lie within
the unit hypersphere.
